  I honestly have no idea who greenlit this or why; but given just how obscure the source is - I have hopes that it’s a passion project, and will be made with love and care.

    Maybe the rights went cheap. Or maybe you’re right.

    For what it’s worth there was an NES game back when the Pizza Cats were originally notionally relevant. It was alright.

      Didn’t know about the NES game, thanks for the heads-up! It looks like it was only released in Japan and based on the original Kyatto Ninden Teyandee version, and not the deranged English dub.

      Even calling the original series notionally relevant is probably a stretch, it wasn’t even renewed for a second season! 🤣 But I guess we have its general failure to thank for setting in the Rube Goldberg series of events which led to the absurd English dub?
